There`s a place in the darkness that I used to cling to
That presses harsh hope against time
In the absence of martyrs there`s a presence of thieves
that only want to rob you blind
They steal away any sense of peace
Though I`m a king, I`m a king on my knees
And I know they are wrong when they say I am strong
As the darkness covers me
(chorus)
So turn on the light and reveal all the glory
I am not afraid
to bear all my weakness, knowing in meakness
I have a kingdom to gain
Where there is peace and love in the light, in the light (oh)
I am not afraid
To let your light shine bright in my life, in my life (oh)
---- aaaiieee, yeah oh ----
There are ghosts from my past who own more of my soul
Than I thought I had given away
They linger in closets and under my bed
And in pictures less proudly displayed
A great fool in my life I have been
Have squandered `til pallid and thin
Hung my head in shame and refused to take blame
for the darkness I know I`ve let win
(chorus)
can you hear me? (repeat x5)
Well I`ve never been much for the bearing of souls
In the presence of any man
I`d rather keep to myself all safe and secure
In the arms of a sinner I am
Could it be that my worth should depend
By the crimson stained grace on a hand?
And like a lamp on a hill, Lord I pray in Your will
to reveal all of you that I can
(chorus x2)
there`s a place in the darkness that I used to cling to
That presses harsh hope against time.
